Anyone else using said Ammo Notice anything unusual?[=lksmith;3409512]220gr OTM subsonic lot#V54G111
I bought a box of the above ammo 3wks ago for my AR since I haven’t had time to work up a load
To hunt with. BIG MISTAKE!!!!
First shot exited and hit the target and it was loud even with suppressor, second shot was fired also loud,
but thought I heard something hit the brush behind the target.
Third Shot KABOOM! Sounded abnormally loud but no additional recoil.
Looked at the gun and right at the end of the barrel right before the threads the barrel was split and had to use vicegrips to
Get the suppressor off since I couldn’t get it off with the suppressor wrench.
After I got over my disbelief, and inspected the suppressor, luckily no visible damage (surprisingly) I promptly contacted Federal via the website that night telling
them what happened and that I wanted a new barrel due to their ammo ruining it
No luck, Contacted them via the website again and was told to call. Called them once again stated my case, offered them pictures, lot numbers, offered to send the
Barrel along with the offending box of ammo again nothing.
Was trying to give them ample time to respond and relay how they took care of me, but have heard nothing and with gun season coming up over most of the country
wanted to warn others in hopes of sparing them the same fate
